Hello Sean.
A couple of interesting photos there.Done a fair bit of work on the powershift Drotts in the early 1980's.The JCB back hoe must have put a fair bit of strain on the final drives with all the extra weight.
A couple of photos,BTD6 and wainroy backhoe :) and a 125 publicity photo.Will that do ?

The lines of a powershift drott were quite square and box looking,series b launched in 1970 then upgraded to b series 2 in 1973,the 165 was launched in 1976 as a brand new model.I will add more tonight.See b 100 loaders pic of a brand new 125 b series 2 above.

Is this when the loader pivots were moved forward to give a more 'walk-in' access to the seat?

Hello all :wave:
Today i have decided to add the line up of powershift machines as introduced in 1970,bear in mind at this time the old gear drive models were still an option.
If members have any questions about numbers of machines produced at Doncaster
i will look in my records to try to find out any info :geek: .So thats it for today children untill your next lesson and thanks for the input.
